CLARISSACLARISSA LISTENED TO his words, letting her mind drift at the sound of his voice, and feeling the rise and fall of his chest. She wondered why despite everything he just told her, she was still so calm. Perhaps it was the magic in his voice that compelled her to calmly listen to him. "One day, the Alpha King of all wolves visited a neighbouring pack to help them solve a rogue problem when he scented the most beautiful scent. He traced it to the daughter of the pack doctor. "The cold-hearted King fell in love at first sight and took the female back home with him as his Luna Queen. They were the first mates in history. Later on, more mates were found and wolves stopped taking humans as wives. "The existence of mates changed the wolves as all werewolves waited and searched for their soulmates. Every wolf has a soulmate gifted to them by the moon Goddess. "And that soulmate is who we are destined to spend the rest of our lives with. Our mates are our weakness; they live and w

CLARISSASTARING AT THE woman in front of her, Clarissa was unable to recognise the woman who gave birth to her. From the start, she knew her mother loved her adopted son more but Clarissa never imagined her mother would deliver her to Zachary this way. With hurt-filled eyes, Clarissa poured out her thoughts and emotions. "You know what, Mother, I tried so hard to convince myself that you sending me away was not because you hated me but because I was not good enough. "It took a long time for me to build my self-confidence which your so-called family brutally smashed. "I endured the blame for being weak, I endured the pain of being sent away, and I endured the judgement from members of the town. "What I refuse to endure is that once again, I have to accept and give up my freedom and happiness for the very same people who did not care about me to begin with."You are the most selfish person I have ever met and the only thing I regret is being born from your womb. You should have j

ARCHERSAM TOOK ARCHER'S jacket and Archer climbed up to the ring and stood by the side, leaning against the edge of the rope and rolling up the sleeves of the white shirt. Mayhem came to stand face to face with Archer. Sam was right, this fighter had no scent. Mayhem stared Archer down, obviously trying to scare him but failed miserably as Archer's blank stare did not waver. When Mayhem saw that he failed to intimidate Archer, he moved back to the opposite side of the room, resigning to glare at Archer from the distance. Then, the announcer walked up to Archer and asked for his name. "Diviner." The announcer went back to the middle of the ring. "The last match for today would be between our Champion, Mayhem and the brave Diviner!" The crowd erupted in more cheers and the announcer stepped out of the ring as the bell was rung. Like before, Mayhem rushed at Archer first but Archer saw his intention before he moved, and stepped out of the way. But to Archer's surprise, Mayhem h

CLARISSA"S... S... STAY B... BACK," Clarissa stuttered, fearfully pointing her index finger at a smirking Zachary who appeared in front of her, as she shuffled back. "Too late now, little Rose. You lost your chance to bargain when you disobeyed my orders in the first place," Zach calmly said and in a blink of an eye, his smile vanished. Without thinking, Clarissa took off, trying to rush past Zach and possibly catch him off guard.However, it seemed like he was already prepared for whatever stunt she might pull as he kicked the door close and grabbed her at the same time. He began carrying a struggling Clarissa into her living room."Let go of me now, Zachary!" Clarissa demanded. He deposited her onto the couch and stood over her. Clarissa tried to stand up again but he held her arm, pushing her back onto the couch. He breathed out exasperated, sounding like he was tired of her. Clarissa hoped he would get annoyed and go away. "Save your strength, Rosette, I will grab you befor

Sam scratched his head, once more looking uncomfortable. "Err... I would have preferred if Alpha could explain this himself but since he is adamant about not telling you about it, I guess I have no choice but to tell you."Clarissa wondered what could be capable of making Sam this embarrassed. Not wanting to make him even more embarrassed, she kept quiet and let him speak at his own pace no matter how interested she was in hearing it. Sam breathed out an exasperated sigh and started speaking. "A mate's mark is given to both mates to signify belonging and union. It is equivalent to the wedding rings humans wear. It is a bite that is placed on a specific spot on the neck of your mate. Since you are human, Alpha would be the only one to deliver the mark. It would show that you belong to him alone and him to you. You would share some of his abilities and his scent-"On hearing his last sentence, Clarissa quickly cut him off." Are you trying to tell me that I will be able to turn into a wo
